If you are not failing, then you are not trying enough new things. Amazon has been successful a lot, a LOT more often than they have failed.

- icelancer 9y agoI think that is probably false. They have way more failures than successes, but the successes far outpace the losses in output.
- fsloth 9y agoI think more failures than successes can be interpreted as a healthy appetite for product experimentation. The other option in todays world would be not to innovate except through purchases of established product families from other companies and acquisitions.
- justadeveloper2 9y agoAmazon phone, lol.
- BatFastard 9y agoSo yes the phone failed, but how about the 50 services they offer on AWS? Failures on their part are heavily publicized, but successes move along silently.
- gozur88 9y agoOr AWS itself. Doesn't seem like a good fit for a company like Amazon.
